Find Doula Jobs in Gwynn Oak, MD

Hello, I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to reach out and ask whether your doulas are in-network with TRICARE or if you have experience working with TRICARE reimbursement for doula services. I also wanted to confirm whether your doulas are certified through DONA International. We are currently looking for a doula for our first delivery at the Annapolis Birthing Center this September, and we are excited to learn more about your services and support options. Thank you in advance for your time and help. I look forward to hearing from you! Best, Sarah

Seeking a doula to help prepare better for my third baby due in February. I’ve had two vaginal hospital deliveries but was induced with my first and I ended up with an epidural with my second because I wasn’t prepared for a long labor and ended up with bad baby positioning and pelvic girdle pain.

It is my first child and we would like to do a hospital birth that have the assistance and guidance/support from a doula. Hoping to have a doula to advocate for me to give me the highest chances of having a natural birth without c section.

Plan to give birth in hospital, unsure of birthplan

Where do you plan to give birth (home/hospital)? I plan to give birth in a hospital setting at Pascal Women’s Center at UM Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie, Maryland. (UMMS) Estimated budget: My budget will depend on what services are covered by my insurance, if anything. I am looking for postpartum support options that fit within my available coverage or payment options. Describe your birth plan: I am still developing my full birth plan, but my main preferences are: * I would like to avoid giving birth flat on my back and would prefer alternative laboring positions when medically appropriate. * I would like my doula and delivery nurse to be my primary support people in the delivery room. * I would like delayed cord clamping. * I would like immediate skin-to-skin contact with my baby after birth. * I would prefer no bath for my baby immediately after delivery and would like to wait until I am ready. * I would like medical interventions delayed unless they are medically necessary. I would like procedures explained to me and want to provide consent before interventions whenever possible. Requirements for the provider (certification, years of experience, second language): I am looking for someone experienced in postpartum support and newborn care, especially overnight newborn care. Certification as a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, or similar training is preferred. I value someone patient, compassionate, respectful of my parenting choices, and knowledgeable about newborn needs. A second language is not required. Details about care recipients (age, special needs, feeding, etc.): I am expecting my first baby. My care recipient will be my newborn baby. I will need support learning my baby’s routines, feeding, soothing, diapering, and newborn care. I would appreciate someone who can support me as I recover and adjust to motherhood. Additional duties (sleep training, cleaning, cooking, laundry, etc.): My main need is postpartum recovery support, especially nighttime care so I can get adequate rest after birth. I am looking for assistance with: * Overnight newborn care * Feeding support (breastfeeding, pumping, and/or bottle feeding support if needed) * Diaper changes and soothing * Helping establish healthy newborn routines (not formal sleep training right away) * Light household cleaning as needed * Cooking or meal preparation * Light laundry assistance My goal is to have compassionate support during the transition into motherhood while allowing me time to heal, rest, bond with my baby, and gain confidence caring for my newborn.

About Me & What I'm Looking For Hello! I'm expecting my fourth child and am due in November. Although this isn't my first birth experience, my youngest child is now 13 years old, so it has been quite some time since I've been through labor and delivery. I'm looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable, and professional birth doula who can provide continuous emotional, physical, and informational support throughout labor and delivery. My birth preferences include: - I plan to receive an epidural for pain management. - I would like encouragement, comfort measures, and guidance before and after receiving the epidural. - I value clear communication, a calm presence, and someone who will help me feel confident and supported during labor. - I would appreciate assistance with labor positioning, breathing techniques, advocacy, and helping my support person participate in the birth experience. I currently have Maryland MedStar Health insurance. I am specifically looking for a doula whose services are covered by my insurance. If my insurance does not cover doula services, I do not plan to pay out of pocket, so insurance acceptance is an important requirement. I'm excited to work with a doula who respects my birth preferences and can help make this a positive, supported, and empowering experience.
